From the land of the Bluenose.....in keeping with the rarer type finds this large silver medal rates as one of my top 10 fav items ever recovered. it was found over 20 years ago at the Dingle in a fob along with a cross and chain. Don't do Latin so no clue as to the translation of this beautiful piece. Well as of today I'm officially one year from pensionable.

Doing these posts of older finds is helping remain lucid. Staples come out of my knee on the 03JUN. <;)

Very nice silver medal, Les!

The side with Mary says: Mary Was Conceived Without Sin.

The sacred heart side says: Let my heart be joined to you. (Or yours.)
